THE INDEPENDENT. SATURDAY, JANUARY 10. 1*74. .()( a l ai:\\ ?<. The Banner no more; its last page is filled; its >rks, like all earthly things, have ended; lias breathed its last and its funeral rge has been snug. We are willing to rget its faults, and in its death let them > and with it bury them, and we are filing to perpetuate its virtues, for it ossessed many. Soon after the Infant :defbndent whs born, the father, and the aen proprietor of tho Danner, sought to nothcr it 'ere it could wulk alone. But ie iNDEeaNDENT was a bright-eyed boy ■ell proportioned in all its parts; and with s wonderful energy and vitality, stnborn t and successfully resisted tho onslaught ith almost super-human power, cateliing he missile aimed and desigmsl for its istruetion and then, with the dmrneteris c mildness of the editor, rather than re irn it with distinctive force, gently laid in the lap of its would be destroyer. liis wonderful exhibition of the youthful vdbpkndfkt's forbearance and forgiveness ■xcited the admiration of all tho people, and they have been furnishing it with food and raiment, and, contributing in every way to facilitate its growth and aid it in its dovelopenient. This failure on the part of the editor to destroy the Inde- Fekiiknt and the popular approval of the Is- DEPfcNDENTs course, was more than lira proud heart could bear. Hence, the sale and transfer of tho Danner to other parties. With tho recent proprie tors, we have been on terms of peace, and os journaliits tho most amicable relations have existed. Although it was prophesied and hoped that tho Independent would not survive the long heated summer with its scarcity of money; wo do not rejoice that the proprietors failed to procure the means to make their payments, we are satis’ tied that they did all that oouhl bo done under the circumstances, and have no doubt if it had not been for the great strin gency in money matters that they would have succeeded. Witnessing their perse verance and energy, we are the last one. to j rejoice at their failure, we had no jealousies for we believed all the time that we could be mutually beneficial to each other and; both together ben great public benefit. It I is not our desire to make the impression upon the public mind that the proprietors j were insolvent., as the reason of their fail ure to make their payment; but that it was attributable to their not getting money that they had assurances they would get. at the time of their purchase. Wo think their efforts were highly commendable— the auspMs under which fhey started considered—ns well as the many unfavor able circumstances the whole country has | lad to labor under. Everything consid ered, we think they are justly entitled .to the congratulations of the people. Tlmy made a good paper and wo think ihey j would have succeeded if it had not been for j the money panic. Ttiey propose to start anew paper, and in this we wish them greater success, an 1 offer them the linen - Jit of our columns in which to publish their prospectus. And we now give them our fullest assurance that we will never throw a single obstacle in their way to success, but will extend to them every courtesy aud kindness. Now the Jlanner is no more, and with a chinr conscience we ••an say that we never wished to injure it or desired its downfall, but now hope that it may be exhumed from its grave and un der anew name attain to a much higher degree of eminence and pe'feclion. And now, as we cannot, rejoicingly adorn its cold brow with the laurel wreath of victory, in sadness wo lay the cypress sprig upon its pale form. Fresh coeds Just received, which were bonglit st panic prices, and will he mild the same wav Call earlv and secure the cheapest goods yet sold. No humbug. At Kavtos’s New Vouk Store. Come to flic Supper to he given by the ladies of Quitman, members of the Methodist Chureb, nt Kayton’s Hal', on Friday evening, the 16tli jnst., the proceeds to be used in repairing the Parsonage, which important duty has been overlooked by the men; and now the Indies have determined to stay the waste and protect the property from further injuries. Therefore, a feast of fat thiiigs will be prepared, for the ladies of Quitman (and particularly those whonve making the preparations for the coming fca"t), cannot be excelled in such things. A small ad mittance will be charged, and a very reasonable charge for the Bupper. We hope that nil the People of Quitman, and ns many as can come from the country and neighboring towns, will be in attendance. We think all the citizens will encourage the ladies in this highly commendable enterprise, for there is no sectarian bick erings here and we feel sure that Presby terians and Baptists will not be absent because it is a Methodist Church benefit. We hope to he able in our Dext issue after the supper to report that the ladies efforts were crowned with success. What every customer savs must be true, and all say that the best bargains can be got at Kayton's New Vouk Stoke. ' A beautiful lot of Columbus Jeans, also Domes tic Plaids, some new and beautiful colors worthy of special notice, at Bkioos, Jelks & Co's, j A Select Boarding School for young ladies is now open in Quitman by the undersigned. All the English branches will be taught, and those desir ing it will be thoroughly instructed in music. Those desiring to board elsewhere can do so, but their boarding in the house is preferable, as a more rigid discipline : can be enforced, unremitting vigilance will be kept 'over pupils entrusted to her care, and the most rigid rules of propriety and decoruin will have to be observed. The price of tuition, which will be I*- rate, must be paid quarterly; board ! |f *. able monthly. jsnlO Miss Kate Holzendojif. A Good Opportunity. Tho advertisement of Miss Kate Hol zendorf, which we have placed in our local columns this week to giro it prominence, speaks for itself and presents to the oiti | zens of the country a rare opportunity for ■ the education and proper discipline of 1 their daughters. Schools of this character 1 in other Stales are very popular and we have often wondered that they are not more | common in this State. Miss Kate possesses every qualification for a teacher and dis ' eiplinnrian, aud parents may feel confident ■ that their daughters will be properly di rected while under her supervision. She has ample room for the accommodation of quite a number of young ladies, and we would suggest to parents that it is safer for tiieir daughters to be constantly under the charge of their teacher, as she will feel a greater interest and exercise greater care than any citizen with whom they might be boarding. Application had better be made sown as we have no doubt from the.ndvan tago, as well as the convenience she pre sents for the education of young Indies, that her house will very soon bo filled.

We All Wanted the Conferenee to return to this station the Ilev. Mr. Sweet, who had served the people here so acceptably for the last two years, that saint and sinner was anxious for his return, and indeed, every body rejoiced when the news came that he was again assigned to this charge. But for some reasons, and no doubt wise ones, he has been,since the adjournment of Confer ence, by some powers within the church organization (the authority of which we do not qneslion), assigned to ono of the charges in the city of Macon. While w e regret tho loss of Mr. Sweet, who was the people’s favorite, we l ope his successor, the Itec. Mr. Lewis, will prove acceptable to the people, for we are informed that he iis a good man and a film preacher. We know that Mr. Sweet left his many friends ; reluctantly, and w hile it is unpleasant to give him up we hope the change will prove a blessing to him and tho church.

The engraving is beautifully done, and in the design as well as the execution, the highest artistic skill is exhibited. We are glad that Mr. Bi rues has discovered this talent within himself that has hived dormant so long. Any person wishing to have engraving done ill the highest degree of taste can safely rely upon the skill of Mr. Barnes. He has a large and elegant assortment of jewelry and a splendid selection of silver plate which he will so ll cheap and place any engraving on it the purchaser may desire.

A trial will satisfy all that this beautiful aromatic liniment is far superior to the compounds of rancid grease so commonly sold under the name of liniment. It is an instantaneous destroyer of pains. HEAD THE FOLLOWING. ItTKA, Miss., Juno 2ti, 1809. Meter*. Mansfieldd' Higher, Memphis, Tenn: Gentlemen : The following are vol untary statements. I make them alone for the good of the Buffeting. Whan I was in your eitv you recommended to me 1 and advised me to buy the Magic Arnica ! Liniment. My reply was, I had no eonfi ; deuce in patent nosti tins. I told yon of j a hurt l received eleven years since that had not been relieved, but was increcsing with age. You then presented me with a ; bottle of this liniment, I took it through j courtesy to yon. A week after 1 got home ! 1 concluded to use it. I applied it twice each day for two weeks. Since tlint, time I T have felt no pain, hut feel as well as 1 | did twenty years ago. The bottle of lini -1 ment has been worth more to me ! than the bottle tilled w ith gold would have been. I recommend the liniment to nil who I find suffering with pain from | attains, bruises, rheumatism or any other cause whatever. It recommends itself \ wherever sold. I am, dear sirs, Yours, etc., bls S. J. WADLEY. We find the following reported in a New York paper. Wo give it for what it jit may be worth. Ho many cures for eon sumption have been advertised, that it is well to be sceptical. Probably medical journals may have noticed this alleged discovery of Dr, Koch, lmt wo have seen no previous me .ti nof it in the pipers: Dr. William Kcb. of Berlin, well known to specialists from his investiga tions in the domain of modern surgery, i and from liis treatise on gun-shot frac ! tures. has discovered anew method of j treatment tor consumption. It consists in healing up the affected portious of the | lungs by injections of iodine, so as to cheek the process of festering, which is j the origin of the disease. The treatment lias been tested ill the great hospitals of Berlin within a short time, among others at the Boyal Charity in the presence of the most eminent surgeons. All the re ■j ports of the eases in which this treat- I ment lias been administered are favorable, i and hold out a promise of a complete | core. For many years Dr. Koch lias been trying the experiment with animals, hav ing tested it with mine than three liun j dred, at, a vast outlay of time aud money. The Pen Business in the Bowery.- A , New Sw' vdee. At the Bowery, Now York, is anew scheme for money getting, iti one game the operators have a number of white boxes, each about, two inches long and an inch wide. In lliese money is deposited, and the spectators are invited to take chances. When H-lfi is the iimonut balloted for, ns is usually the ease, five boxes are placed before the spectators, and one contains the money. The chief ora tor of the house then exhorts his hearers to invest at $5 a chance. The first man to avail himself of the offer is a capper of the game, and lie picked out the lucky box every time. Last right a poor man lost •-hi, hoping to draw HU). Failing, in this, I lie was caught, for @lO more. The opera tors played it nicely. Tt 'enty-five dollars was placed in ono of tli ee boxes. Then the caller said that &10 would purchase either box, and perhaps tho purchaser inb'ht stake the ‘‘ln'" money.” The man | who bad lost per take ono box, which proved n blank, j This Wfc two boxes on tho shelf, and an other capper took one; of course the one | containing the #25, but did not exhibit its j content?*. Then followed a long har- I'gue from the auctioneer, in which lie avowed it as hi t firm belief that the box bo held in Ins band contained the prize. The man bought another ticket and drew nothing. The swindlers cloak their rob bery under the pretense that each box contains a number of pens, and that they oiTer the money only as an inducement to customers in the pen line. N. Y. Sun. A Kansas Granger went to town to sell a load of hay, Leavenwo h was the town. He sold the hay and put the S2O he got for it in his vest- pocket. Presently he felt foe the money and could not feel it S2O gone. There appeared to lx* no more hope for him in life. He could not go home to that woman, without the hay or the money. What would she think? He did not know, but lie thought he’d fix it. He went to the telegraph office, to send a message to his wife. Tt was, that he intended to throw himself under the wheels of the first train. Good bye, Louisa Jane. The telegraph boy saw lia;, - seeds in the Granger’s hair, and melan choly in his eye. He delayed the dispatch and sent for a policeman. The “cop’ came, and took charge of the desperate man. He told his little story, and the po liceman helped him search liis pockets again. Well, the rod of greenbacks was found, mixed tip wutli other papers that bad slipped through the torn linirg of liis pocket. Ho had a lucid interval. The officer caw liis mind had got around right again and let him drive his team home. The boy, however, violated the secrecy of the telegraph. Marrying His Grandmother.- A mar riage of rather a singular description took place in Greenbrier a short time since. A young man about eighteen years of age. by the name of Zopb, married his grand mother, a lady n vly forty. Dy this coup tie main lie becomes bis father’s pa aud liis own grandfather, and thereby occu pies a supremely independent and inevi table position. ■Richmond Whiff. LOU A L A J) J ’E/i 7ISEM EX TS.
